World's Most Honest and Sexual Help Wanted Ad

It was a want ad with a heck of a twist that Chicago lawyer Samir "Sam" Chowhan posted on Craigslist. Now it could get him disbarred.

Chowhan was seeking what most executives seek, although Sam was brutally honest about it. He advertised for a dual secretary/sexual partner, according to a complaint filed with the Illinois Attorney Registration and Disciplinary Commission.

His ad read: "Law firm looking to hire energetic woman for their open secretary/legal assistant position. Duties will include general secretarial work, some paralegal work and additional duties for two lawyers in the firm. No experience required, training will be provided."

The ad asked for a résumé and a few pictures, "along with a description of your physical features, including measurements."

A woman identified in the complaint as Debbi responded. Chowhan e-mailed her back: "In addition to the legal work, you would be required to have sexual interaction with me and my partner, sometimes together sometimes separate. This part of the job would require sexy dressing and flirtatious interaction with me and my partner, as well as sexual interaction. You will have to be comfortable doing this with us."
